#New boards and beyond videos how to#
Video - Can your members upload or embed videos? Can they have a video as a part of their member profile? Would screencasts help your community understand how to use the site? Presence - When a member is logged in, is their presence made apparent to other members? Can they use presence to start a 1:1 conversation?Ĭhat - Do you enable members to chat in a group setting in real time? Maybe at the same time every week? Could IM be integrated? Wiki - Are there any parts of your web site where members can edit the page? What about making a new page? Could content exist in static and editable form? Could your site work like Wikipedia?Ĭomments/annotations on static content - Do you enable members to provide feedback on a news article or other static content? Can members annotate a page? Micro-updates - Can your members post little updates about what is on their mind or what they're doing? Maybe like Twitter? Surveys or Polls - Do your members have opportunities to participate in short polls that work to summarize the perceptions of the community around pertinent subjects? Are the favorites displayed in public? Can the members share Favorites? Ratings - Do you enable your members to participate in the form of ratings? Stars? Thumbs up or down? Digg?įavorites - Can your members mark specific community content as "favorites". An example is our Zeitgeist page here.įace-to-face - Do you help your members meet face-to-face? Meetup is a great example of "using the internet to get people off the internet" Social Bookmarking - Are your members using a social bookmarking service like ? What if your site displayed an updated list of all the sites that your members bookmarked from across the web? Does your community manager use bookmarking tools? If so, the community would likely be interested. Personal Tags - Can members tag themselves with words that relate their interests? Can these tags be used to bring people together with common interests? Can personal tags be used to match people with content?Įxternal Tags - Does your community have a tag they use to remember external web sites?

Tags - Do you enable members to tag (describe with free form keywords) content within the community? Can members use the tags to group related pieces of content? Flickr photos is a great example of this feature for photos. Groups - Can your members form new groups within the community? Can they invite one other to join a group focused on a specific subject matter? Many social networking sites like FaceBook use this feature.īlogging - Is there a way for your members to communicate without the expectation of discussion - a soap box? Can a member start their own blog? What about the community manager - does he/she have a blog for relating news and community events? The March of Dimes Share Your Story Community is using blogs and message boards effectively. Social networking - What's included on the member profile? Can the profile work more like a member home page ? Can people declare their connections to one another? Can new content be filtered through personal connections? If you're thinking about an online community, consider all the ways that you can enable members to participate. My point is that the participation options have grown. Of course there some that like it way too much, but that's another post. It's scary stuff and only a certain percentage of people are prepared for that sort of communication on a web site. No one wants to be the guy or gal who stepped up and fell on deaf ears. Discussion is not a comfortable situation for a lot of people, online and off. The central problem is the discussion format. These days however, the message board has competition in the effort for your community's attention. Indeed, the friendly message board has been a bedrock of online community interaction - one of the original articles. When choice was limited, popularity grew around the best options of the time.

It wasn't too long ago that online communities had a killer app - it was the message board.
